Cisco AutoQoS
In Cisco Quality of Service, we can choose between IntServ and DiffServ.
However Cisco has a template called AutoQoS, once you run the AutoQoS command, it configures the quality of service for you.
What I need to understand , is which strategy AutoQos use ? does it use Intserv or DiffServ? if it uses neither , then how is the traffic classified ?
Thank you

in the above link, they talk about AutoQoS and AutoQoS-VoiP.
Well AutoQoS-VoiP is clear , it ensures that VoiP traffic is efficient…
But it does not talk about AutoQoS , what traffic is prioritized first what is prioritized next, etc….
in other words, if throwing the command AutoQos is enough to make all types of traffic efficient, why would someone bother configure QoS for each specific traffic.

But whether you use the AutoQos or you do not…you still cannot tell which traffic type you are favoring.
I believe the whole point that evolves around the Quality of Service, is to favoring one type of traffic over another…
There are hundreds of types of traffic( ftp,ipsec,pop,http,kazaa,g
if you do not specify which traffic you are prioritizing, then how would you make a specific traffic efficient? AutoQos does not specify any traffic that will be prioritized…so i do not see the reason why it is used...

I have done some reading in the above link, and what I concluded is, AutoQoS command is not used by itself, it is used with the traffic that you want to prioritize, example:
Router(config)# interface Serial0/0
Router(config-if)# auto qos voip

I wonder if that 's correct.

I have watched CBT Nugget video where the instructor mentioned that Typing Auto QoS command by itself will take care of the rest…
That was confusing and do not agree with it, this is why I posted this question to get a confirmation from other Experts.
To my understanding AutoQoS command is not used by itself, it is used with the traffic that you want to prioritize

Inteserv = is like VMware Thick disk provisioning.
it carves out the bandwidth for a certain traffic and no other traffic can use that bandwidth, it is reserved.
Diffserv= is like Vmware Thin provisioning, for instance, traffic A can use 100Kbits, Traffic B 25 Kbits, Traffic C 60 Kbits. However if There is no traffic A , that 100 Kbits can be used by another traffic.
AutoQos= ???
I am not sure how it treats the traffic and the bandwidth
